## Abstract

A module forming a part of a lead-through or transit for cables, pipes or the like is disclosed. In at least one embodiment, the module includes two base parts forming an outer part of the module. Two holding parts form an inner part of the module. Inside the inner part, formed of the two holding parts a cable or the like is received. The inner part of the module is received turnable inside the outer part of the module.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A compressible module receiving a cable, pipe or wire, the compressible module comprising:
two base parts forming an outer part of the compressible module; and
two holding parts forming an inner part of the compressible module, the inner part being turnable in the outer part and the cable, pipe or wire being received inside the inner part of the compressible module wherein
the inner part of the compressible module is received turnable in any direction, the two holding parts forming a generally spherical outer surface received on a spherical contact surface formed of the two base parts when the two base parts and the two holding parts are brought together to form the compressible module, and
each of the base parts includes a central semi spherical support, a bevelled part at each end in an axial direction and an edge, having a plan, short extension in the axial direction, placed between the semi spherical support and each of the bevelled parts, and wherein each bevelled part expands outwardly from the semi spherical support towards an end of the compressible module, as seen in the axial direction.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The compressible module of claim 1, wherein each of the holding parts includes a semi spherical outer surface, a semi cylindrical inner surface and contact surfaces for contact between two holding parts brought together and wherein the spherical outer surface of each of the holding parts is cut to form two opposing straight ends.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The compressible module of claim 2, wherein a set of peelable sheets is received on the semi cylindrical inner surface of each of the holding parts.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The compressible module of claim 1, wherein the inner part of the compressible module is received rotatable inside the outer part of the compressible module, and wherein the two holding parts form a cylinder received on a curved contact surface formed of the two base parts, when the two base parts and the two holding parts are brought together to form the compressible module.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The compressible module of claim 4, wherein each of the holding parts includes the form of a semi cylinder, with a set of peelable sheets in a recess at the centre of each of the holding parts.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The module of claim 5, wherein the cylindrical holding parts are extended in a horizontal direction in the formed module and perpendicular to a cable received in the compressible module.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The compressible module of claim 1, wherein each of the base parts includes contact surfaces for contact with a corresponding base part when two base parts are brought together to form a module.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The compressible module of claim 1, wherein each of the base parts includes a cut at the lower edges perpendicular to the direction of a cable received in the compressible module.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

The compressible module of claim 1, wherein a lubricant is placed between the base parts and the holding parts.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The compressible module of claim 1, wherein the compressible module includes a generally rectangular outer surface.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

The compressible module of claim 1, wherein the compressible module includes a generally cylindrical outer surface.

### Claim 12 (depends on 1)

The compressible module of claim 1, wherein the cable, pipe or wire passes completely through the module.
